Recommendation is to avoid using the year nomenclature as this
information is already encoded in the git repo. Avoids needing to
repeatly update.
Also updates AUTHORS.txt from current repo with contributor names
* To select a footprint info, Use the bbox with not text as selectable area
* Fix also incorrect position of footprint bbox when plotting with offset

- in DXF coordinates were using 6 digits for coordinate mantissa: this is not
enough for coord in inches. Now use 16 digits
- Arc( VECTOR2I& aCentre, EDA_ANGLE& aStartAngle, EDA_ANGLE& aEndAngle, ...)
was using integers for coord. This creates significant errors for start point
and end points of the arc. Now the center is given in double, and its position
is calculated from angle end points (and radius) to do not generate a position error
for these end points (previously the error could be 20 ... 50 nm)

Old PLOTTER::Text is not (yet) removed, but it use negative text size
to mirrored text, which is not really compatible with some plotters (especially PDF).
Using TEXT_ATTRIBUTES is much easy and much better,
so PLOTTER::PlotText() is added.
Note: "old" PLOTTER::Text() is not removed yet.
Using arc angles to plot an arc is really error prone due to different
options between plotters, and angles defined in Kicad, using this version of
arc plotting from Kicad is no longer allowed in Kicad code.
Also moves most navigation code to SCH_NAVIGATION_TOOL.
Also changes page number href to anchor syntax ('#foo').
Also adds hypertext processing to SCH_TEXTBOXes.
Also adds combobox with schematic pages to text properties dialog.
The problem is that "real" page numbers can be duplicated, so we work around it
by using virtual page numbers instead which are guaranteed unique.
Example "goto:3" will go to page 3. If customised page numbers are used such as
a, b, c, then to go to page b, we should specify goto:2 (i.e. the virtual page
number).
CHANGED: The text variable ${SHEETNAME} now always represents the name of the
sheet when used anywhere in the schematic editor, including the title block
ADDED: A new text variable ${SHEETPATH} which is replaced with the path to the
current sheet - e.g. "/Sheet 1/Sheet 2".
To ensure backward compatibility, the default drawing sheet now uses
${SHEETPATH}. Custom drawing sheets will need to be manually edited.
Only SVG can actually handle transparency, but we should at least mimic
the color value of other transparent fills by blending with a (presumed)
white paper.
